I know I can do that as a workaround, but the right pane is still not 
behaving properly. Its scroll bar should scroll the entire pane, 
including the buttons. The left button should never roll off out of 
reach, no matter how narrow the pane gets. That's the behaviour it has 
always had up until now and how it is if I downgrade to version 94.x.

And what about your Preferences window? If you shorten it, does not the 
right options pane get cut off with no scroll bar to get to the lower 
area? Actually, it looks like SOME of the categories get a scroll bar 
but it doesn't actually scroll all the way to the bottom! Toolbar, 
Edition, Advanced, and others don't even get a scroll bar.
